⚡ Demonstrate a complex grid management technology for available surplus transfer capacity, risk of operational safety, economical aspects, legal authorization process and last, but not least, the social acceptance;
⚡ Identify improvements of a different way of measurement of two different types of dynamic line rating sensors to utilize better the limited cross-border capacities;
⚡ Review required features of sensor testing protocols and integrated DLR and Health Monitoring system guidelines, proposed for standardization.
